Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Health-related quality of life assessment is increasingly important as it can help both clinical research and care for patients, particularly among oncological patients. Quality of Life Questionnaire - OES18 (esophageal module) and Quality of Life Questionnaire - OG25 (esophagogastric module) are the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer modules for the evaluation of quality of life in patients with esophageal and esophagogastric cancers, respectively. The aim of our study was to translate, to culturally adapt and to perform a pilot testing to create the Portuguese version of both questionnaires.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer guidelines were followed for translation, cultural adaptation and pilot testing of Quality of Life Questionnaire - OES18 (esophageal module) and Quality of Life Questionnaire - OG25 (esophagogastric module). The Quality of Life Questionnaire - OG25 (esophagogastric module) went through a process of forward (English → Portuguese) and backward (Portuguese → English) translation, by independent native speaker translators. After review, a preliminary version was created to be pilot tested among Portuguese patients. As a Brazilian version was already available for Quality of Life Questionnaire - OES18 (esophageal module), the questionnaire was simply culturally adapted and pilot tested. Both cancer and non-cancer patients were included.

RESULTS

Overall, 30 patients completed the Portuguese version of each questionnaire. Afterwards, a structured interview was conducted to find and report any problematic items. Troublesome items and wording were changed according to the pilot testing results. The final versions were sent to the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Group and approved.

CONCLUSION

The Portuguese versions of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire - OES18 (esophageal module) and OG25 (esophagogastric module) questionnaires are useful, reliable and valid tools for measuring health-related quality of life in patients with esophageal and esophagogastric cancers, respectively. They can now be used in clinical setting and for scientific purposes.

摘要

引言

与健康相关的生活质量评估日益重要，因为它有助于临床研究和患者护理，尤其是在肿瘤患者中。生活质量问卷 - OES18（食管模块）和生活质量问卷 - OG25（食管胃模块）分别是欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织用于评估食管癌和食管胃癌患者生活质量的模块。我们研究的目的是翻译、进行文化调适并进行预试验，以创建这两种问卷的葡萄牙语版本。

材料与方法

遵循欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织的指南，对生活质量问卷 - OES18（食管模块）和生活质量问卷 - OG25（食管胃模块）进行翻译、文化调适和预试验。生活质量问卷 - OG25（食管胃模块）由独立的母语为英语的翻译人员进行了正向（英语→葡萄牙语）和反向（葡萄牙语→英语）翻译。审核后，创建了一个初步版本，在葡萄牙患者中进行预试验。由于生活质量问卷 - OES18（食管模块）已有巴西版本，该问卷只需进行文化调适和预试验。纳入了癌症患者和非癌症患者。
